This gospel unveils a continual revelation of God’s righteousness—a perfect righteousness given to us when we believe. And it moves us from receiving life through faith, to the power of living by faith. This is what the Scripture means when it says:
“We are right with God through life-giving faith!”
Romans 1:17 (TPT)
JUSTICE TODAY
Today the world is just not getting what it wants.
It doesn’t seem fair, doesn’t seem right.
A loved one passes without my hand to hold
A grandson graduates without my watching him walk.
A husband of 50 years denied that trip to celebrate our union.
Today a community is just not getting what it deserves.
It doesn’t seem fair, doesn’t seem right.
A loved one passes I saw him pleading for a breath of air.
A brother restrained under a man sworn to protect life.
A gentle giant of 23 years robbed of a day more.

What do we have to offer our world, community?
What can we give of justice today?
Just us.
The very best from the depth of your soul.
Let it play out…He in you and you in Him.
In thought, word, action
Super-naturally, super-effectively, super-eternally
We offer Right-ness.
